Vorschlag für weitere Stimmen

Danke, für die wunderbare App. Ich hätte aber einen Stimmenvorschlag. Denn bei mir fehlt bei den englischen Stimmen der Fred. Außerdem wäre es schön, wenn man Siri Stimmen heruntergeladen hat, dass man sie auch bei VoiceVister benutzen kann. Nehmen wir mal das Beispiel auf deutsch, was man ja in die anderen Sprachen übersetzen müssten sollte: "Hier spricht Siri. Wie klingt das?" Ich wäre euch sehr dankbar, wenn ihr meinen Vorschlag umsetzen könnt.

頼りにしています

街を歩くのに役立ちます。ただGPSの精度が十数メートルあり、その竿をどのように生かして良いのかわからず不安です。

兴趣点不准确

中国广东省梅州市兴宁市的兴趣点不准确相差600米以上。其他功能非常强大,没毛病,非常好。支持。

Es una app excelente

Me ayuda un montón en mis desplazamientos.

Čtení trasy

Na trase nečte čísla domu a ulic tak často jak se ty domy mění. U čísla domu by měla být také zároveň řečena ulice ke které ten dům patří
